They used the EPA US 9-region national database (EPAUS9r) with the MARKet Allocation (MARKAL) energy system model to develop emissions scenarios and spectral nudging to downscale global climate to the regional scale over the US. The GISS ModelE2 provides the initial and boundary conditions to a regional climate model for the years 2006?2010

In fact, policies aimed at cutting carbon emissions improve air quality by a similar amount as policies specifically targeting air pollution. Selin and colleagues compared the health benefits to the economic costs of three climate policies: a clean-energy standard, a transportation policy, and a cap-and-trade program. Thompson, R.
